Speaking of why InfiRi has received so much criticism in the community, many people point the finger at the transparency of metrics. Once data like LBS, MinShare, InnerCT becomes transparent, it becomes easier for people to exploit loopholes. When the system is made public, it becomes a target for gaming. But to be honest, the tendency to boast about one's project didn't start with InfiRi. Looking at the entire community, there are many who enjoy discussing pj — this has been going on for a long time, it’s just that it wasn’t as "scientific" before.

Haha, this is the magic of Web3. Transparency has become a flaw instead.

Transparent metrics have instead become cheating tools; this logic is indeed brilliant and has long been criticized. Speaking of which, the entire community is just bragging, InfiRi was simply caught in the act, nothing new. Everyone is gaming, InfiRi is just the most clueless one. To put it simply, the tactics are too obvious. They used to do things secretly, but now they do it openly in broad daylight, of course, they attract more resentment. This is called shooting oneself in the foot; you have to hand over your loyalty pledge yourself, deservedly so.

Being transparent is actually being gamed; this logic is really clever. Then why not just keep everything private?

Data transparency is actually being gamed, this logic is really clever, it seems like all projects are playing this way.

Transparency of metrics actually leads to loopholes; I really can't believe this logic. It feels like the entire ecosystem is sick.

Data transparency has instead become a breeding ground for gaming; this is absolutely ridiculous. However, everyone knows how to hype up a project, InfiRi was just exposed.

actually, let me break this down — the transparency paradox here is *exactly* what we saw with governance metrics back in 2021. if you examine the data from similar voting power dynamics, empirical evidence suggests that publicizing mechanisms doesn't reduce gaming, it just makes it more... sophisticated. historically speaking, this governance precedent plays out every cycle.

Data transparency has become a tool for cheating, which is quite ironic.
